Meet the Virus Hunters: Before the Next Pandemic Strikes

COVID-19 has brought attention back to deadly viruses. Meet hard-working scientists in Singapore and elsewhere racing to identify emerging pathogens, battle existing viruses and co-operate to find urgently-needed treatments and vaccines. We follow a Thai expert on an expedition to find out if bats in her country carry the same virus as bats in China, thought to be the origins of the new coronavirus.
